So What Wednesday

So What Wednesday

This week, I'm saying so what if...
  • Baby Girl stayed awake until after midnight to ring in the New Year with us.  She was happy and playful and kept us entertained!
  • She then slept until 11am New Year's Day!  It was a nice break from the usual 7am wake up call.
  • I didn't have a single drop of alcohol on New Year's Eve. 
  • I spent New Year's Day taking all of my Christmas decorations down.  Now the house seems so bare...but so much less cluttered!
  • In re-organizing our living room, I realized that between her birthday and Christmas, Baby Girl had a toy explosion in our house.  It's time for a toy box.
  • I hate feeding Baby Girl jarred baby food. 
  • I'm not quite sure how I feel about my new blog design.
  • Even though the holidays are over, we are busy every weekend in January.  Longwood Gardens trip for their last Christmas weekend, Hershey Bears game and my nephew's birthday party.
  • We took Baby Girl to her first every hockey game last Friday and she was soooo good!  She only got antsy a few times but she really watched the game and she even yelled at the players!  The mascot freaked her out, though. 
  • I'm not making any New Year's resolutions.  I never stick to them anyway so why bother?
  • I'm expecting this year to be epic.  This should be the biggest year of our lives, lots of changes coming our way and lots of news to share!

Cheerios Stands

So when I logged onto my computer this morning, the first article that caught my attention was this one ( Cheerios Stands ) about a new commercial Cheerios has out.  They are getting a ton of negative feedback for this commercial and I'm just not understanding why. So basically, people are upset because this is a white mother, a black father and a biracial child.  What's the big deal? I know that it isn't a common thing to see in a TV commercial but what's the big deal?  I really don't think that biracial couples are uncommone these days so I'm not really understanding why they are getting such negative feedback for this commercial.  I give a ton of props to Cheerios/General Mills for not pulling the ad.  They could do that and that would be easy and would end the negativity but they are not going to do that.  Good for you.  There is no reason why this ad should not be aired. By the way, I think the commercial is cute and funny and I proba...

29 Week Bumpdate

The heart rate today was 160 and all is well. Little Man is still kicking away all the time!  He sleeps until late morning and then he's all over the place for the rest of the day.  It's fun but it's also uncomfortable sometimes. When I weighed myself on Sunday, which is when I usually do it to update my pregnancy app, I was only up 15lbs.  As of today, though, I am up 17lbs.  I feel like I am growing at warp speed but the doctor assures me that I am measuring just fine.  I do feel like some of the shirts I wore two weeks ago shouldn't be worn anymore though!  The bump is growing! I have noticed that I have been waking up with swollen ankles every morning despite sleeping with them elevated.  I know this has a lot to do with the weight gain since I had such a problem with it last time.  Other than that, the normal heartburn and backaches come and go and I'm crazy tired but I don't really have any other issues.  I don't ever ...

HFMD

Hand, foot, and mouth disease is a common viral illness that usually affects infants and children younger than 5 years old. However, it can sometimes occur in adults. Symptoms of hand, foot, and mouth disease include fever, blister-like sores in the mouth (herpangina), and a skin rash. ( http://www.cdc.gov/hand-foot-mouth/about/index.html) Are you kidding me? Blister-like sores in the mouth? Why do things like this even exist? What purpose does an illness like this that just torments little babies (and their parents) serve?  This stupid illness is currently 'running it's course' through my poor son. One week before his first birthday. Apparently it's 'going around' as the doctor so nicely explained.  Fortunately we only had one really bad day where he was not eating or drinking much and was just miserable. He was back to his usually happy self in no time even with blisters in his mouth. So this week, while my husband is away for work in Chicago and ...
